How to Make Money in ANY Market

Most investors are taught one thing:

Make money when markets go up.

But what happens when markets fall? ⚠️

That’s where most strategies fail—and where smarter investing begins.

In a recent conversation, market expert Chris Vermeulen shared a different approach. Instead of chasing returns, his strategy focuses on protecting capital first, then growing it consistently over time.

The Biggest Mistake Investors Make

Let’s start with a hard truth:

Many investors hold onto assets even when they’re losing value.

Chris points out that this is one of the fastest ways to destroy long-term returns.

Traditional advice often says:

• Diversify across stocks and bonds

• Stay invested no matter what

But according to his experience, this can feel like riding a roller coaster—especially during downturns.

Instead, his core principle is simple:

👉 Don’t hold assets that are going down.

A Different Strategy: Follow the Trend

Rather than predicting the future or reacting to news, Chris focuses on technical analysis—reading price movements and trends.

Here’s how it works:

1. Follow Price, Not Headlines

• News creates noise

• Price reveals truth

If an asset is making:

• Higher highs

• Higher lows

…it’s in an uptrend—and more likely to continue rising.

2. Ride the “Wave” 🌊

Chris compares markets to the ocean:

• Big opportunities come 5–12 times per year

• You don’t chase waves—you wait for them

• When the wave comes, you ride it

And when it weakens?

👉 You get out and protect your gains.

3. Watch Where Money Flows

Money is always moving between asset classes.

• If stocks are rising → money is flowing in

• If gold is falling → money may be shifting elsewhere

By tracking this movement, you can understand:

• Market confidence

• Investor fear

• Where opportunities are forming

The Concept of “Asset Revesting”

One of the most powerful ideas discussed is something called:

Asset Revesting

Instead of:

• Buy and hold forever ❌

• Constant active trading ❌

This strategy sits in the middle:

✔ Hold assets that are rising
✔ Move to cash when nothing is trending
✔ Wait patiently for the next opportunity

Surprisingly, this approach means being in cash about 40% of the time—earning steady interest while avoiding risk.

Why Protection Matters More Than Returns

Everyone asks:

👉 “What’s the return?”

But Chris flips the question:

👉 “How much are you protected during downturns?”

For context:

• The S&P 500 dropped over 50% in 2008

• Traditional portfolios lost nearly 40%

Meanwhile, his strategy experienced less than 6% drawdown.

That’s the difference between:

• Recovering quickly

• Or losing years of progress

The 4 Stages of Every Market

Understanding market cycles is key to long-term success.

Chris explains that all asset classes—including real estate—move through four stages:

1. Base Stage

Sideways movement, building momentum

2. Bull Market 📈

Prices rise, confidence grows

3. Topping Phase

Market becomes unstable, uncertainty increases

4. Financial Reset ⚠️

Major correction or crash

Each stage requires a different strategy—and ignoring this is where most investors go wrong.

Who This Strategy Is For

This approach isn’t for gamblers chasing quick wins.

It’s designed for:

• Investors 40+ with capital

• People focused on wealth preservation

• Those who value consistency over hype

As Chris puts it:

👉 Chasing money is dangerous.
👉 Let opportunities come to you.

The Real Edge in Investing

At the end of the day, the biggest takeaway is this:

Most investors are reactive.

They:

• Buy after markets rise

• Panic after markets fall

But real wealth is built differently:

✔ Enter when trends are strong
✔ Exit when they weaken
✔ Stay patient in between

Final Thoughts 💡

Markets will always go up—and down.

The question is:

👉 Are you only prepared for the upside?
👉 Or are you protected on the downside too?

Because the investors who win long-term aren’t the ones who chase returns…

They’re the ones who protect first, then grow consistently.
